New 1D and 2D metal oxygen connectivities in Cu(II) succinato and glutarato coordination polymers: [Cu3(H2O)2(OH)2(C4H4O4)2] · 4H2O, [Cu4(H2O)2(OH)4(C4H4O4)2] · 5H2O and [Cu5(OH)6(C5H6O4)2] · 4H2O

Two Cu(II) hydroxo succinates [Cu₃(H₂O)₂(OH)₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (1) and [Cu₄(H₂O)₂(OH)₄(C₄H₄O₄)₂]?·?5H₂O (2) and one Cu(II) hydroxo glutarate [Cu₅(OH)₆(C₅H₆O₄)₂]?·?4H₂O (3) have been prepared and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. They feature 1D and 2D copper oxygen connectivity of elongated {CuO₆} octahedra in “4?+?1?+?1” and “4?+?2” coordination geometries. Within 1, linear trimers of three edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra are connected into copper oxygen chains, which are bridged by the anti conformational succinate anions to generate 2D layers with mono terminally coordinating gauche succinate anions on both sides. The layers are assembled into a 3D framework by interlayer hydrogen bonds with lattice H₂O molecules distributed in channels. Different from 1, the principal building units in 2 are linear tetramers of four edge-sharing {CuO₆} octahedra. The tetramers are condensed into copper oxygen chains and the succinate anions interlink them into a 3D framework with triangular channels filled by lattice H₂O molecules. The {CuO₆} octahedra in 3 are edge-shared to form unprecedented 2D inorganic layers with mono terminally coordinating glutarate anions on both sides. Interlayer hydrogen bonding interactions are responsible for supramolecular assembly of the layers into a 3D framework with lattice H₂O molecules in the channels. The inorganic layers in 3 can be described as hexagonal close packing of oxygen atoms with the Cu atoms in the octahedral cavities. The title compounds were further characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and thermal analyses.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [Ni(H2O)6][Ni(H2O)2(C4H2O4)]·4H2O

Reaction of a freshly prepared Ni(OH)_{2?2 x} (CO₃) _x ·yH₂O with maleic acid in H₂O at room temperature afforded [Ni(H₂O)₆][Ni(H₂O)₂(C₄H₂O₄)]·4H₂O, which consists of [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ cations, [Ni(H₂O)₂(C₄H₂O₄)]^2? anions and lattice H₂O molecules.

X-ray crystal-structure analysis suggests that compound 1 consists of [Ti4O4(C2O4)7]6－ anion and two protonated N-(2-ammonioethyl)piperazinium cations. The anions are linked into an infinite chain through Ti4O4(C2O4)8 by sharing the oxalates as bridging ligands.     

The thermal dehydration and decomposition of Ba[Cu(C2O4)2(H2O)]·5H2O

The thermal behaviour of Ba[Cu(C₂O₄)₂(H₂O)]·5H₂O in N₂ and in O₂ has been examined using thermogravimetry (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The dehydration starts at relatively low temperatures (about 80°C), but continues until the onset of the decomposition (about 280°C). The decomposition takes place in two major stages (onsets 280 and 390°C). The mass of the intermediate after the first stage corresponded to the formation of barium oxalate and copper metal and, after the second stage, to the formation of barium carbonate and copper metal. The enthalpy for the dehydration was found to be 311±30 kJ mol^–1 (or 52±5 kJ (mol of H₂O)^–1). The overall enthalpy change for the decomposition of Ba[Cu(C₂O₄)₂] in N₂ was estimated from the combined area of the peaks of the DSC curve as –347 kJ mol^–1. The kinetics of the thermal dehydration and decomposition were studied using isothermal TG. The dehydration was strongly deceleratory and the -time curves could be described by the three dimensional diffusion (D3) model. The values of the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor for the dehydration were 125±4 kJ mol^–1 and (1.38±0.08)×10¹⁵ min^–1, respectively. The decomposition was complex, consisting of at least two concurrent processes. The decomposition was analysed in terms of two overlapping deceleratory processes. One process was fast and could be described by the contracting-geometry model withn=5. The other process was slow and could also be described by the contracting-geometry model, but withn=2.The values ofE _a andA were 206±23 kJ mol^–1 and (2.2±0.5)×10¹⁹ min^–1, respectively, for the fast process, and 259±37 kJ mol^–1 and (6.3±1.8)×10²³ min^–1, respectively, for the slow process.Dedicated to Prof. Menachem Steinberg on the occasion of his 65th birthday

The enthalpy change of the reaction (1) $$ SmCl_3 \cdot 6H_2 O(s) + 2C_7 H_6 O_3 (s) + C_4 H_7 NO_2 S(s) = Sm(C_7 H_5 O_3 )_2 \cdot (C_4 H_6 NO_2 S) \cdot 2H_2 O(s) + 3HCl(g) + 4H_2 O(1) $$ was determined to be Δ_s H _m ^Φ =123.45±0.71 kJ mol^?1. From date in the literature, through Hess’ law, the standard molar enthalpy of formation of Sm(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₄H₆NO₂S)δ2H₂O(s) was estimated to be Δ_s H _m ^Φ [Sm(C₇H₅O₃)₂·(C₄H₆NO₂S)]·2H₂O(s), 298.15 K]= ?2912.03±3.10 kJ mol^?1.

X-ray crystal-structure analysis suggests that compound 1 consists of [Zr(C2O4)4]4- anion and two protonated piperazinium cations. The anions are linked through hydrogen bonds of piperazinium. FT-IR and Raman spectra clearly show the existence of oxalate groups in the crystal lattice.

Synthesis,crystal structure of Gd(H2O)(C2O4)2 · NH4 and of La(C2O4)2 · NH4. Characterization of the Ln(H2O)(C2O4)2 · NH4 with Ln=Eu…Yb

Single crystals of two lanthanide complexes, presenting similar formula Ln(H₂O)_x(C₂O₄)₂ · NH₄ with Ln=La, x=0 and Ln=Gd, x=1, have been prepared, in closed system at 200 °C. The gadolinium complex is bi-dimensional. A layer is built by the packing of the basic unit, [Gd(C₂O₄)]₄. The gadolinium atoms are related only by bischelating oxalate ligands, the ammonium ion and the water molecule (bound to the gadolinium atom) are localized into the interlayer space. The lanthanum complex is tri-dimensional. The basic building unit remains approximately the same and the packing of these units form a layer. However, within these units, the lanthanum atoms are related by either an oxalate ligand or an edge. Moreover, an oxalate ligand assumes the connection between the layers. The ammonium ion is localized into two sets of intersecting channels. Pure phase of the gadolinium complex has been prepared at 100 °C and extended to some lanthanide elements, Eu…Yb. As the size of the lanthanide ionic radius is decreasing, it is noticeable that the a unit–cell constant follows an expansion pattern while the others two follow an usual contraction one. The thermal behavior of this family shows that the anhydrous compounds are obtained and that some water molecule is sorbed during the cooling. Thus, the anhydrous compounds present a relatively open-framework with some small micropores.

The CuN₂O₂O′chromophore can be described as square pyramidal strongly distorted towards trigonal bipyramidal. The basal coordination positions are occupied by the two oxygen atoms of the bidentate oxalate group, the coordinated water molecule and one nitrogen atom of the bidentate mepirizole group; the other coordinated nitrogen atom occupies the apical position. Magnetic moment, IR, electronic reflectance and ESR spectra are interpreted in accordance with the proposed stereochemistry.

Extensive hydrogen-bonding interactions are involved in water molecules, ligated sulfate anions and fumaric acid molecules. In addition, π-π interactions via aromatic nitrogen-containing ligands are also discussed. The combination of non-covalent interactions leads to the formation of a 3-D network structure.
